"This is the same reasoning behind Nero being unable to activate DT when someone else has claimed ownership of Yamato." There's where you're wrong. You see, unlike Rebellion, Yamato ISN'T the manifestation of Vergil's power, as it was originally owned by Sparda. If you claim that it became Vergil's manifestation because Sparda died, then the same applies to Nero: He would claim ownership since Vergil died.
